August 2018

This event is for Comparative Literature students and faculty. We start with a quick round of introductions, then host a multilingual poetry reading and reveal the winner of the year's photography contest. Refreshments will be served.

You are invited to submit a poem (as well as its English translation if it is in a language other than English) if you would like to read one at this event, and you are also welcome to submit a photo (or a few!) for a chance to win the photography contest, which is judged by the two CLAGS (Comparative Literature Association of Graduate Students) representatives, Professor Tatlock and me. The winning photo gets printed and displayed in the Comparative Literature office, and it's an enjoyable tradition for the program. Please send your poem and/or photo(s) to Rebecca Dehner-Armand and Erika Rodriguez (rebeccadehner@wustl.edu; e.rodriguez@wustl.edu).

Comparative Literature, Comparative Arts, the Interdisciplinary Project in the Humanities and Text and Tradition will hold its annual Open House for new undergraduate students on Friday, August 25 from 3:30 to 5:00 pm in Umrath Hall (outside of room 140). Meet faculty, hear from current majors, learn about program requirements and enjoy refreshments.
